i'm chalking up concrete
and writing on spare page
remember when i was your kid,
wonder did you even love me then?
i've made bad mistakes
i've tried to turn the page
but i'm writing words to you again,
from my bunker that protects them
from me
and works my hands
mercilessly
they say it's rehabilitation
and i'll learn a thing or two
about how further to screw
over me and you
but, you know..
some of us..
don't wish for the knowledge
i've been down that road
you can never turn back
and you turned away
you never looked back
you were down the street
why couldn't you help me out
only needed a drive, mom
i was out on parole
they say it's rehabilitation
and i'll learn a thing or two
about how further to screw
over me and you
but, you know..
some of us..
don't wish for the knowledge
we no longer believe in second chances
and i'm not saying that i earned it,
dad
i just thought your love would last
even though i was a mess
even though i'm in this mess
i'm chalking up concrete
writing on spare page
got no one else to speak to so,
though you'll rip this up i'll vent
i know you'll never read this
and i know you don't believe i'm sorry
i know you no longer love me
yea, i know i don't bring you money
no money more problems
but the problem's solved
i'm behind bars, dad
..mom
hey...
they say it's rehabilitation
and i'll learn a thing or two
about how further to screw
over me and you
but, you know..
some of us..
don't wish for the knowledge
yea they say it's rehabilitation
to cover for their revenge
forgiveness is untrue
christian, muslim or jewish
we're all the same
we're all the same
they say we're all the same
